For centuries people have utilized a system of values when determining how to acquire whatever they need or want from society. Money is a tool for communication, and has operated in different forms throughout history, from Barter Trade Networks to Cryptocurrency. As a Medium of Exchange, Money took the form of pressed disks of metal stamped by local Governments, to printed paper money issued by Banks or individuals. Sometimes this included precious metals like gold or silver, other times it existed as sea shells, trading cards, or gaming tokens. About the Author: Horus Michael Copyright (c) (R) 2021 Mike J.

Book excerpt: While watching the popular TV show Money Heist, in Episode 8, Season 2, right at the 40-minute mark, Cecil (CJ) John, the author, had an epiphany. The premise of the show was that a "bunch of losers" broke into the Royal Mint of Spain, seizing hostages with a singular strategy: stay in the mint for as long as they could so that they could print as many unmarked euros as possible; effectively minting their own money.The Social Currency addresses the idea that money is a social construct, and therefore so is poverty. The book showcases several communities that confronted their financial disadvantages by creating their own currency. These economic activists challenged the idea that money, by definition, had to be created and controlled by the government, locally instituting the printing of money in the process. Some examples of alternative currencies are the Brixton pound (B£) and blockchain's bitcoin. Today, you can exchange the Brixton pound one for one against the pound sterling.In 2017, the bitcoin cryptocurrency that the anonymous Satoshi Nakomoto reserved for himself, was worth $22 billion. It is time for the community to be actively involved in the process of minting money. Money is a social construct and a medium for the exchange of value, and the essence of morality is the transaction. CJ traces the history of trade from bartering, standardized metal coins through to government-controlled fiat, and today's cryptocurrency. Interestingly, today we refer to blockchain as the Internet of value.The dominant morality in any given moment arises from an oscillation of power between what the German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche referred to as the Masters and the Herd or the oppressor vs. the oppressed. Absolute power corrupts, and it is time to challenge the idea that government-controlled money, and the "Masters" that support it, are suitable for the wider society. It's time to confront the notion that money in its current state is appropriate for Herd's social and fiscal interests.Minorities, women, and even the disadvantaged among whites struggle to raise valuable capital to develop their goods and services. The Social Currency concludes with a proposed strategy and technology infrastructure to alleviate poverty, the intersection of bartering, cryptocurrency, and financing. CJ will present the architecture that will realize innovations such as blockchain decentralized data so that the consumer not only controls but leverages their medical, academic, social media records, and more. Decentralized identities will allow consumers to seamlessly and secure the exchange of value across national borders.

Book excerpt: Money is an illusion, an idea that becomes an instrument that is applied in a monetary zone and capable of evolving. We are experiencing the fourth industrial revolution, that of Artificial Intelligence. While humanity has already passed the revolution of computing, or the electricity and steam, that moved the past, money revolution also has its stages. The origin of money is mixed with debt when it was used with barter, in the form of all kinds of merchandise, then it was standardized with the metal coins. Money on paper comes later, and is an American innovation. The electronic money continued the journey boosted by the banks and now with the artificial intelligence we see the advances of the programmable money.Today money is complex, there are many types of current accounts, innumerable means of savings (including accounts that guarantee overcome inflation) also the system gives the possibility of saving in foreign currency, or the recently appeared "cryptocurrencies", such as Bitcoin. Is Bitcoin the future of money?If the system with mobile payment becomes standard, it will affect traditional banking, and will also affect the international transactions of the Countries. The mobile phone is increasingly powerful and can begin to assume automatic delegate actions, on behalf of the client. That allows banking, tax payments, commercial and even national currency operations, which together with the electronic money of Banking make programmable money possible.The concept of money also has new ways of manifesting itself with the "quasi-money" that is treated in detail in the book, or phenomena such as "negative interest" in a special chapter. The new money will end anonymity. Will everyone like this? Finally, an entire chapter is devoted to the security of programmable money given that it depends on whether it is implemented quickly or slowly.

Book excerpt: Bitcoin first appeared in January 2009, the creation of a computer programmer using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. His invention is an open-source (its controlling computer code is open to public view), peer-to-peer (transactions do not require a third-party intermediary such as PayPal or Visa) digital currency (being electronic with no physical manifestation). The Bitcoin system is private, with no traditional financial institutions involved in transactions. Unlike earlier digital currencies that had some central controlling person or entity, the Bitcoin network is completely decentralized, with all parts of transactions performed by the users of the system. With a Bitcoin transaction there is no third-party intermediary. The buyer and seller interact directly (peer to peer), but their identities are encrypted and no personal information is transferred from one to the other. However, unlike a fully anonymous transaction, there is a transaction record. A full transaction record of every Bitcoin and every Bitcoin user's encrypted identity is maintained on the public ledger. For this reason, Bitcoin transactions are thought to be pseudonymous, not anonymous. Although the scale of Bitcoin use has increased substantially, it still remains small in comparison to traditional electronic payments systems, such as credit cards, and the use of dollars as a circulating currency. Congress is interested in Bitcoin because of concerns about its use in illegal money transfers, concerns about its effect on the ability of the Federal Reserve to meet its objectives (of stable prices, maximum employment, and financial stability), and concerns about the protection of consumers and investors who might use Bitcoin. Bitcoin offers users the advantages of lower transaction costs, increased privacy, and long-term protection of loss of purchasing power from inflation. However, it also has a number of disadvantages that could hinder wider use. These include sizable volatility of the price of Bitcoins, uncertain security from theft and fraud, and a long-term deflationary bias that encourages the hoarding of Bitcoins. In addition, Bitcoin raises a number of legal and regulatory concerns, including its potential for facilitating money laundering, its treatment under federal securities law, and its status in the regulation of foreign exchange trading.
